Dirk Nowitzki calls out teammate/DeShawn Stevenson: Heat are 'actors'
65 replies
"They keep sticking him on Jet in the fourth quarters and he's been doing a good job," Nowitzki said. "Jet hasn't really been a crunch-time, clutch player for us the way we need him to."
Terry is a combined 0-of-7 in the fourth quarters of the Mavericks' two losses in the NBA Finals.
"They know to take me out of the fourth quarter, which they didn't do in Game 2," Terry said of the Heat's choice to turn to James defensively, "then they got a good chance."
Added Terry: "Let's see if can defend me like that for seven games."
"It's a call to arms. One man's not going to win it," Terry said. "Obviously, the big-wig is going to need to get some help, and I'm going to tell you this -- that we will be there in Game 4."

Foul or not, Dallas Mavericks guard DeShawn Stevenson said Miami Heat stars LeBron James and Dwyane Wade do a better job of selling calls than most.
"They're great actors and they sell it," Stevenson said Monday afternoon. "That's what they're supposed to do."
When it comes to James and Wade flying through the lane, Stevenson said the Mavericks' tendency to send a message is muted.
"We've got to take hard fouls," Stevenson said, "but if you touch them they're so dramatic you might get a flagrant 2."
Stevenson added that a hard foul could lead to not just a flagrant foul, but a suspension. Wade is averaging 29 points in the series, with James scoring 20.3.
"It just makes it tough," Stevenson continued. "They put a lot of pressure on us. If you do one little thing it's going to be magnified to a big ordeal. I think when they go up and do the dunks, if you take a hard foul, the outcome is going to be pretty bad."



All that is necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.
--Edmund Burke
yep...actors that have gotten no calls this series.

Everybody looks at the refs after missed shots in basketball, it has been going on since I can remember...
“If you told me A-Rod flew on a spaceship from Mars to here, I wouldn't be surprised."--thephins.com poster Ray Finkle on A-Rod
These are the morons Dirk has to work with.
Headcoach material wouldn’t want to work somewhere they’re not trusted with actual football decisions.
Dirk Nowitzki is a bad teammate.

Wade can be obnoxious at times in that he looks to the ref everytime their is any kind of contact in the paint, and LeBron just expects to get a call whenever. It can be a little pathetic to watch at times.

Did you watch the last game when Shawn Marion jumped after a Lebron pump fake and landed on lebron, then hit has hand as lebron released the shot AND IT STILL WASNT CALLED!!!!
And seriously, after Devin Harris flopped like a European Soccer fairy in the 2006 finals all 6 games.....I could careless if Wade or Lebron looks for fouls when they are GETTING FOULED.

It's the playoffs - you foul em hard and take your medicine - especially when you know that James reverts to a jumpshooter when he struggles to get to the hoop. The Heat have 1,000 dunks this series - quit acting like you've put effort into stopping them.
That being said - Wade's freak-out on the ref in game 2 was embarrassing. That HAS to be a technical - especially when they put one on the Mavs coach later for complaining to the refs. Whether it should have been called or not, there was an expectation set throughout the last two years that you can't get away with what Wade did after that play.
In other words - both teams need to shut up and play.

So you're cool with everyone bitching all they want as all I'm sure don't get foul calls? Just because they don't get every call doesn't give players the right to constantly bitch.

What's getting old is the peanut gallery putting their two cents in when they are not the ones being affected.

Or like when Mike Miller gets called for a technical, when he is the one that is fouled while on the ground?
Sorry...when you are a team that attacks the rim and the other team is allowed to foul "intentionally" for all intents and purposes, then there is a problem.
Again..Tyson Chandler drew more fouls than Lebron James and Dwyane Wade COMBINED. chew on that.

You need to re read what I put, it seems to have flown over your head. I can draw you a picture if that will make it more understandable for you.

Popping into a thread and telling the people contributing in a thread to effectively "SHUT UP!" is not replying. It is borderline trolling.
